Description Jeff Fearn 🐞 2008-10-31 03:26:21 UTC
Description of problem:
All publican output should be XHTML 1.0 strict compliant.

Nesting a screen in a para, which is legal DocBook, outputs invalid XHTML.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.38

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Nest a screen in a para
2. make html-single-en-US
3. xmllint --valid --noout tmp/en-US/html-single/index.html
  
Actual results:
index.html:226: element p: validity error : Element pre is not declared in p list of possible children

Expected results:
no errors

Additional info:
In XHTML p is only permitted to include inline items. In DocBook para is permitted to contain block level tags. Consider switching p output to <div class="para"> as div is allowed to contain block level elements.

Consider running xmllint over Users_Guide when building publican-docs package.

It would be neat to have a big book of DocBook examples that we could use to test all possible combinations of DocBook tags.

Comment 1 Jeff Fearn 🐞 2008-11-03 06:36:09 UTC
Changed para and simpara to output as div, modified CSS to display correctly.
